Description
Provincetown is mostly thought of as a bustling destination, being Cape Cod's most popular - if not fascinating little town. Narrow streets are crammed with Chowder houses, bars, and touristic shops.
As an alternative to photographing the obvious tourist trappings and cliché scenes, I focused on uncovering the hidden history in the Province land. Exploring beneath old piers, I created this semi-abstract seascape with a mysterious glow. This panoramic print, dominated by strong vertical lines and cool blue hues, is ideal for enhancing a seaside cottage décor.

:)) Awesome! Thank you.. Not so much "in" P Town, but close enough. I was drawn to the historic Province lands and really wanted to capture a scene that told a little story of it's past. The lighthouses and beaches are great, but taking my exploration a bit down under I was able to feel the mood and able to express that. Appreciate your great comments!!
